A rural school established in 1961. It was abandoned in 2006 and briefly attracted the attention of urban explorers for its desolate atmosphere. In 2023 it reopened as the Taiwan Calligraphy Museum (台灣意象書法館), a rare example of an old school being repurposed as a cultural attraction in the countryside.

I am a web application developer, photojournalist, urban explorer, and history enthusiast passionate about the open web and documenting my experiences on this planet. This project was founded in the early 2010s and has evolved into a sort of personal Wikipedia of places that interest me (and often the photographs I’ve taken there). I’m originally from Toronto, Canada, but spend most of my time residing in Taiwan.
